UNSPSC 85723310: Replacement of left hip joint with ceramic synthetic substitute, uncemented, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left hip joint with ceramic synthetic substitute, uncemented, open approach. This surgical intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code 0SRB03A

UNSPSC 85723310 Replacement of left hip joint with ceramic synthetic substitute, uncemented, open approach is a Commodity code with a nominal scope describing a specific orthopedic surgical procedure; recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show no alignment with that procedure scope. The six posted opportunities instead reflect a broad range of health-benefit administration, occupational health surveillance, medical evaluation services, and temporary health professional staffing — none directly purchasing hip-replacement implants or orthopedic procedures. The issuing bodies include a state department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county and county-system entities (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, Santa Clara County), city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), and a municipal government (City of Long Beach). This suggests either systematic miscoding of health administration and staffing services into a procedure-specific code, or a data-quality issue in how jurisdictions are tagging opportunities within the UNSPSC hierarchy.

The geographic spread spans Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas, with no state representing more than one or two recent solicitations. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP RTMRFP26001 (due October 16, 2026) for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability benefit determinations across approximately 75 annual applications, with a five-year contract ceiling of $750,000; the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP RFP20260825 (due October 9, 2026) for occupational medical surveillance across 14 Washington ferry locations; and the County of Santa Clara Health System RFSQHHSFY270052 (due October 7, 2026) establishing a non-exclusive vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories. The code shows little relevant recent activity for orthopedic implants or surgical procedures.
